This paper gives an overview over several techniques for detection of features, and in particular sharp features, on point-sampled geometry. In addition, a new technique using the...
—This paper presents a new technique for detecting sharp features on point-sampled geometry. Sharp features of different nature and possessing angles varying from obtuse to acute...
Many applications, such as contour machining, rapid prototyping, and reverse engineering by laser scanner or coordinate measuring machine, involve sampling of free-from surfaces a...
